Before you can use VMware Live Site Recovery, you must connect the Site Recovery Manager Server instances on the protected and recovery sites.
This is known as site pairing.
Important:
VMware Live Site Recovery does not support network address translation (NAT). If the network that you use to connect the
VMware Live Site Recovery sites uses NAT, attempting to connect the sites results in an error. Use credential-based authentication and network routing without NAT when connecting the sites.
Prerequisites
- Verify that you installed Site Recovery Manager Server instances at the protected and recovery sites.
- If you did not select the default plug-in ID when you installed Site Recovery Manager Server, you must have assigned the same custom plug-in ID to the Site Recovery Manager Server instances on each of the sites.
Procedure
Results
The protected and the recovery sites are connected. The pair appears under Site Pairs on the VMware Live Site Recovery Home tab.
